Alternate Use for Best Mechanical Coupling
1. Remove ADIS1622xCMLZ from ADIS1622x/PCBZ by carefully unplugging the flex
(it can break) and the 10-32 screw on the bottom side.
2. Cut the interface board down so that the ADIS1622xCMLZ can be mounted to the
test frame using a 10-32 stud or machine screw.
3. Use the cut down version of the interface board, along with an extended ribbon
cable to still use the ADISUSBZ to capture data into a test PC.
4. Use 2mm screws to attach the cut-down interface board and 4-40 screws to
mounted the ADISUSBZ.

ADIS1622x Evaluation Software Installation
The ADIS16220, ADIS16223, and ADIS16227
have their own demo/evaluation software
packages, which can be downloaded from
each product’s web page at
www.analog.com.
Use the following steps to download, install,
and get the evaluation software running.
Each package will use a similar setup, with
differences noted in the following steps.
NOTE: The demo/evaluation software
packages use a driver set that is not
currently compatible with Windows Vista
and Windows 7. Use a machine with
Windows XP operating system.

ADIS1622x Software Tips, Manual Trigger Mode
1. Click on “Interface” and
select USB, then OK
when the pop-up
window shows the USB
device is connected.
2. Software should start up
and place the ADIS1622x
device in Manual mode.
3. Click to trigger button
and wait for the capture
to complete inside the
device, then load to the
screen.
16
iSensor ® The Simple Solution for Sensor Integration
ADIS1622x Software Tips, Automatic Trigger Mode
1. Automatic mode in the
ADIS1622x products uses
an internal timer to trigger
new data capture events.
2. Since the ADISUSBZ
doesn’t connect to the
“Busy” signal, DIO1 per
factory default, use the
LEDs on the
ADIS16223/PCBZ to
determine if the device is
busy. Do not attempt to
read when the LED is on.
Note that the ADISUSBZ
takes a few seconds to
read and process the data.
Keep the capture period of
above 10 seconds for best
results in read-back.
3. This screen shows a quick
example. The AVG_CNT is
extended to 64 so that the
DIO1 LED is on longer for
observation.
4. Click “Start” to begin,
once the settings are
finished.
17
iSensor ® The Simple Solution for Sensor Integration

each alarm, then enter
the acceleration
threshold for triggering
the capture.
2. In this case, enter “10”,
then click “Write A1”.
3. Notice how the device
changes the value to
something close. This is
the closest register
value for the user entry.
4. Then repeat for each
Alarm.
5. Click on “Save to Flash”
to back the settings up
in non-volatile flash
memory.
6. Click on “X” in upper

the tap until the capture
triggers.
3. This will be evident
when the DIO1 LED is
not longer lit.
4. Click on “DisArm,”
which is the same
button that was “Arm”
at the start of the
process.
